In Reply to: Heating with wood ? posted by Bruce from Can. on September 29, 2021 at 07:40:50:
Having lived in several older farm homes over a span of some fifty or so years, Ive had the fortune or MIS fortune lol of heating with: Wood,,,,,,Wood Chips,,,,Corn,,,,,,,,Coal,,,,,,LP Gas,,,,,,,Natural Gas,,,,,,, Electric Resistance (really made my meter spin wore out the bearings lol very expensive) ,,,,,,,Heat Pumps,,,,,,,and can say coal was the warmest, followed by wood, followed by wood chips HOWEVER Heat Pump heat is coldddddddd heat brrrrrrrrrrrr like to froze to death.
Now I have Dual Fuel consisting of a Heat Pump (also AC) when its above 45 Degrees but below a High Efficiency Natural Gas Furnace which (until price rises grrrrrrr thanks Joe) is very cost efficient. As my age increases Im NEVER going back to coal or wood or corn and am very warm n toasty and well satisfied with my Dual Fuel options. If I were much much younger just starting out Id invest in super insulated smart home technology and use a variety of Passive Solar, Earth Sheltering, Geo Thermal, Solar and Wind Energy to get far off of and less dependent on the grid as possible.
Have a nice day yall and for those so inclined please pray for our Country and the border crisis, Americans left behind and stranded in Afghanistan, the rising crime and murder in big cities and rising prices and inflation grrrrrrr
